The Wall Street Journal has ranked the Kellogg global network of Executive MBA programs, including the Kellogg-Schulich school in Toronto, among the top five executive MBA programs in the world, wrote the Toronto Star on Thursday, September 30th.

The Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, together with its partner schools in Canada, Germany, China, Germany, Israel and the U.S. placed fifth in the overall ranking.

“We partnered with Kellogg in order to create a world-class EMBA program for Canada’s most promising business leaders and entrepreneurs,” Schulich Dean Dezsö Horváth said in a statement.

The Wall Street Journal ranking was based on a survey of 5,065 recent graduates, as well as assessments by human resource and executive development managers.

Established in 2001, the Kellogg-Schulich EMBA program will graduate its eighth class this year.
